Man, I wrote about five hundred new words today, but I’m really dissatisfied with them. I wrote them late at night \/ early in the morning, so they aren’t all that coherent. Towards the end, I was practically asleep hitting random keys. My brain is like an old machine right now that you have to hit a couple of times to keep it running. It’s no good!<\/p>\n
It seems that the only time I have for writing is late at night, when my writing sucks because I’m incoherent. Of course, if I were to get more homework done each night, I’d have that time between classes to write. That’s worked out really well when I’ve done it.

It’s like these scenes just don’t end! And they’re probably not that good because the way I’m writing them is too…chunky. I don’t know. I suppose I can go back and smooth them out (and that’s basically what I”ve been doing), but in the meantime, it’s like I don’t know what I’m doing. Adn =I’m getting very tired around now.
